Prime Minister Najib Razak, in his Deepavali Day message, has again asked a Indian Nation in Malaysia a people but domain in a Diaspora to place Nambikkai (trust) in him. If he wants to be given a good of a doubt, there's small indication that he deserves it.
This should not be about a man, a personality cult, but a system. Leaders come as good as go, but a complement lives on, a people live on.
Indians, others as well, cannot continue to be held to ransom by whoever occupies a Prime Minister's chair.
Instead, they need to see concrete movement upon a ground to dismantle a apartheid-like make up that Umno has foisted upon Malaysia.
Indians in sold have been victims of this make up of immorality that is a phenomenon of injustice feelings of wickedness influence (being opposite something for no rhyme or reason) as good as opportunism (the statute class monopolizing all opportunities).
Deepavali is a Time to Focus upon Victory over Evil, Light over Darkness. And Evil, gripping a Nazi holocaust in mind, is best tangible as a miss of empathy.
By extension, should not Deepavali be a Time for Remembering that a Government continues to take divided from a Indian Nation in Malaysia what small they have in sequence to reduce them to a village of thieves, beggars, as good as prostitutes eking out a vital in a building towns so that some alternative people can look good as good as feel good.
Indians have been temperament a brunt of supervision policies that works opposite them. If this routine continues, Indians will turn refugees! in thei r own land, internally-displaced people cramped to a shantytowns.
Indians initial in Peninsular Malaysia after Orang Asli
If you go behind in history, you will find that Indians were a initial people to be in Peninsular Malaysia after a Orang Asli who themselves done their approach from East Africa by approach of a Indian coast. Between now as good as a entrance of a Orang Asli, there have regularly been Indians in Peninsular Malaysia. The Kedaram Civilisation in Kedah arose from more than a millennium ago upon a behind of colonials, a Pallavas, from India. The purpose was to movement as a middlemen in traffic in between India as good as China.
Indian participation in Peninsular Malaysia predates a Thais as good as a benefaction Malay-speaking communities Bugis, Javanese, Minang, as good as Acehnese etc but has been downplayed by politically-minded historians to a mere phenomenon of British colonialism from dual hundred years ago.
Away from history, Indians in Peninsular Malaysia currently find themselves marginalized as good as disenfranchised underneath a Umno Government that has lasted, by offshoot as good as by limb if not default, for 55 years. Indians don't have even a single seat in Parliament or any of a state assemblies.
The outcome of marginalisation as good as disenfranchisement has as placed Indians in an unfortunate position where even a small that they have continues to be taken divided from them by Umno underneath executive laws supervision policies in movement as good as there appears to be no let up in a process.
Mistrust & Distrust
It's in this ambience of mistrust as good as dread that Najib is pleading for nambikkai from Indians with an eye upon a list box as good as his domestic survival.
An example, as pointed out by Hindraf Makkal Sakthi Legal Advisor P. Uthayakumar, is that no internal authority in Malay! sia will emanate even a cendol licence to Indians. If Najib cannot ensure that Indians can't obtain even a cendol licence, he has no business asking for nambikkai from Indians.
The civil service, during a single time, used to be a citadel of await for Indians to a border that they done up over 60 per cent of a top-ranking staff. Meritocracy reigned.
Today, it's a far cry as a miss of farrago censure it upon mediocrity -- in a civil use has seen a number of non-Malays decline to less than 10 per cent. This might be attributed to a actuality that former Prime Minister Mahathir Mohd advised a civil use in his day to chuck divided applications from non-Malays. This actuality was recorded in a PhD investigate by Professor Ramasamy, a benefaction Deputy Chief Minister II of Penang. Rama was booted out from a university for a explanation as good as was invited by Dap to stick upon up. The rest is history.
Najib has done no bid whatsoever to ensure that a civil use embraces a concept of diversity. Instead, you have been being told that non-Malays have been not meddlesome to signing upon as good as a good pretence is being done in wooing non-Malays.Ajak ajak ayam!
In 2008, Indians voted opposite a statute Barisan Nasional (BN) as good as helped a Opposition win by default in a face of an urban-rural divide.
Recipe for domestic victimization after 13thGeneral Elections
This time, Indians have been being asked to select in between a BN as good as a Opposition. This call makes small clarity given a village has been effectively marginalized as good as disenfranchised as evident, during a risk of repetition, in zero seats for them in Parliament as good as a state assemblies. Hence, being forced to select in between a BN as good as a Opposition is a certain recipe for domestic victimization in a issue of a elections.
The Indians would be better off if they abstain from party governing body a! s good a s bloc politics.
Hindraf Makkal Sakthi is intent in talks with Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR). The ad hoc human rights organization working across a domestic order has a eighteen Point List of Demands.http://hindraf.org/18-points-demand.html
Najib has jumped upon a bandwagon as good as wants to rivet Hindraf too. He forgets that Badawi, his predecessor, spurned a opportunity in late 2007 in a face of racist advice as good as suffered Mar 2008.
It's not really required that Indians contingency be represented in Parliament as good as a state assemblies given such representation does not good them but only a handful willing to subscribe to tokenism as good as window-dressing. Hindraf calls it mandore politics, whatever that means. But they might have a indicate or dual here if Indian legislators have been fearful to even complete a word "Indian" for fright of being branded "racist" as good as losing their non-Indian votes.
It's a no win situation.
Indians contingency group to a list box independent of a Malaysian Indian Congress (MIC) as good as alternative domestic parties.
Indians contingency leave party politics, bloc politics
This calls for choosing by casting votes opposite any Indian who offers himself or herself to a citizens during a forthcoming 13thGeneral Election.
Indians contingency additionally leave party governing body as good as bloc governing body as good as look during a lane record of a incumbents as good as possibilities who suggest themselves.
Indians, being members of a 3rdForce that can emerge in Parliament to ensure that no a single has a two-third majority, should not opinion for or opposite parties or coalitions.
They should opinion opposite incumbents who have not performed for them.
They should additionally opinion opposite incumbents who have performed for them! but hav e been in a state legislatures or Parliament three conditions or more in a row.
